Pond lilies offer clues to dinosaurs` extinction
1991
Overview
The plants studied by [Jack Wolfe] - ancient pond lilies and lotuses from a lily pond in Teapot Dome, Wyoming - are the first large fossils found in the scattered layer of debris from the impact. When the first meteor struck, Wolfe said, ancient pond lilies were blooming and ancient lotuses were not yet mature. Two layers of meteor-deposited debris were found at the lily pond site. The frozen pond plants were found in the deeper layer, which Wolfe said he associates with the catastrophic meteor. But fine debris from a second meteor covered and helped to preserve the plants.
